Week 39 was the task to use a table.I decided to create a kind of mixture of a layout and a giftcard for my brother. He has Down Syndrome, so to give a regular gift card I thought was a bit boring when he does not read so well. Therefore, I would rather like making something fun out of it. I found a picture of him from his age of 30 years last year, and sat down with it. I spent a lot of residual paper I had left, and it shaped up gradually. I used a little different fonts, which I hoped would still be able for him to read... :) Also make sure that when creating a table of various lace and Pom Poms at the bottom of the page where I could decorate with the names of us giving it to him. That would be me and my boyfriend, my second and newly married brother and his wife.

When I gave it to him, I also tried to help him to manage to read it himself with some guiding, and it turned out terrific! : D So when he realized gradually the context of what the card said, he beamed up into a big smile from ear to ear! So he was obviously very interested!

Week 40 was the task to use arrows of some kind.I had a very nice scrapping-visit here all yesterday, by Binna. We scrapped all day, and she watched a handball match here while I made dinner. The Perfect Day! : DI started the day with finishing the Christmas card I have shown in a previous post, and continued with two more layouts as well. One can not be shown even yet because it is due for a competition, but the second I made was the one I will show here.

The task was, as I said, to use arrows. I looked through my chipboards, and found someone which was nice. But I also had to find a picture as well. In the end I went for a portrait photo of myself from when I and Øyvind had just met. One of the better photos taken of me, for a change! ;) However, should the picture be about myself when I was 20 kg lighter, or about us as a couple ...?! After some brainstormin along with the good and loving Binna, I went with the fact that we had just met when the picture was taken .... :)

The lyrics at the layout says:When I met you" It was the year you turned 26 years old. You had invited lots of friends for your birthday. You wanted me to meet them. You took a chance on kissing me in front of them all. And 14 days later we became sweethearts."
